>OK, I think I've screwed up the MX records in my DNS Server
sure have:
bcwebhost.net. 1H IN MX 1 208.8.150.204.
that's supposed to be a hostname, not an ip address.
there is only one NS for that domain, what did you did with the other one?
ns1.bossing.com is only listed in delegation data, ie, it's not in
your zone file.
>mail.bcwebhost.net 208.8.150.204.
no, when they ask for the MX for bcwebhost, your DNS should answer
with a hostname.

>mail A 208.8.150.204

both previous are wrong
>www A 208.8.150.223
> A 208.8.150.223
>bcw4 A 208.8.150.202

correct, but drop the [ ]
>mail A 208.8.150.204
> MX [0] mail.bcwebhost.net
fix the above and see if mail goes better.
